oh and some advice dont look for dead pixels if you cant see them thats all you need if you look for them and find some you will always see them and they will piss you off every time you look at the tv

Well I got a DVD player. I'm sure it's not going to set the world on fire, but you get a HDMI cable with it, and for £40 it's no real loss if it's shite.

They'd got loads in my local Aldi (Lichfield) but couldn't see the TV's anywhere. I also bought a dvd player for the spare room for £10 from aldi. Free scart cable too. LOL!

im using a profigold hdmi cable that cost nearly as much as the player.lol

will see what the player is like tomorrow.

but for £40.. cant ask for miracles

I have a component and VGA cable for the Xbox and I alternate between the two depending on what I feel like and if I am using the HD projector or LCD.

VGA IMO is sharper but colours dont seem so vibrant even with major tweaking. VGA is good though

mcbunny.. my laptop display is widescreen tho?

1280x800

see what you mean tho.. 1280 x 800 is not a true 16:9

McBunny

guy yes your laptop is it will produce almost any resolution your laptops screen has a native resolution of 1280x800
the tv wont accept widescreen resolutions over the vga cable but it will over hdmi and has a native resolution of 1366x768 iirc

hooked my aldi dvd up to my norm CRT portable tv via scart

plays divx's fine, plays the copies i have fine

cocky dog :)
 
G

Guy

we had one expensive toshiba that we got with our package and it wouldnt play anything but genuine discs

then we got a diff toshiba it would play certain copies

cheap players play everything.

and this does divx's too which is quite handy.
